Men and women eating in the courtyard

Chapter 197 Depression

Sister Lou went crazy, and Li Xuewu suffered a lot of losses, a conservative estimate of more than one billion.

By the time Li Xue came over, the two of them could sit down and talk about serious matters calmly.

"Second brother"

"Come in"

Li Xuewu waved to Li Xue, who was standing at the door, to come in. When she walked over with unbearable surprise, he introduced her: "Sister Lou, do you remember?"

"Sister Lou"

Li Xue was also a little confused. She didn't see the Xu family's sister-in-law who used to live in the compound last time she came here.

She didn't even know that she would see her second brother sitting with her in the management office.

But since the second brother asked her to call her Sister Lou, she could only call her that way. She was still in school at that time, and she seemed to have heard that the other party had divorced Xu Damao.

Lou Xiao'e didn't know how to face Li Xuewu's girl last time, so she hid.

This time he couldn't escape. Seeing Li Xuewu's formal introduction, he stood up with a smile, took Li Xue's hand and said, "Don't you recognize me?"

Indeed, Li Xue really wanted to say that she did not recognize who this was.

She clearly knew who she was, but from her hairstyle to her clothes to her current overall temperament, if her second brother hadn't told her, she wouldn't have dared to recognize that this was the person from the previous yard.

Sister Lou, however, faced Li Xue's gaze calmly, and asked her to sit down while pouring hot water for her.

Li Xue looked at her second brother, and then at the busy one...Sister Lou. She thought something was going on here.

Li Xuewu did not explain to her and continued to talk to Sister Lou about work.

Sister Lou is in charge of part of the business in Steel City, so that she can get in touch with the people there and make it easier for her to take charge of this business in Hong Kong City in the future.

At the same time, Sister Lou knows that she not only has to manage the club business, overall finance, and the trade projects that Lao Biaozi is responsible for, but also directs Lao Biaozi.

Everyone knew who they were working for, but not everyone knew that behind Li Xuewu stood Sister Lou, who was commanding through Lao Biaozi's remote control.

Li Xuewu asked her to practice the business here, practice managing people, and also practice managing the business.

She couldn't always do everything by herself when she went to Hong Kong City. After all, she had to learn business management. Instead of wasting the opportunity there, she might as well practice her kung fu at home.

Learning and exercising are one aspect, and the other aspect is giving trust.

There are five families sitting in the office upstairs. Lou Yu's temporary departure does not mean that he will not come back. Li Xuewu here has given him too much hope and support, and he does not have any worries as he said.

The connection and bond between the five families and Li Xuewu is Sister Lou. Since everyone has given their wealth and life to him, Li Xuewu also has to express his feelings.

Of course, we won't show them all the trump cards, but using the things on the table to help them handle their financial affairs will invisibly give them the confidence and motivation to work.

Li Xuewu is not afraid of their betrayal, nor is he afraid of their nonsense. As long as there is a slight change, he will physically destroy the evidence.

They are willing to give up their families, their inheritance, and their own lives.

Li Xuewu could not think of any reason for these people to abandon these conditions and betray him.

"Brother Li~"

As he was talking here, another greeting came from the door. Li Xuewu turned around and saw that it was Ou Xin coming in from the outside.

Sister Lou glanced at Li Xuewu and said, "You are quite busy~"

Li Xue had been sitting and listening, and when she saw Lou Xiao'e's tone of voice, she was even more sure of her guess.

After Ou Xin came in, he smiled and nodded with Sister Lou, and then said to Li Xuewu: "Brother Huang and the others are in the billiards room. I heard you were there, so let me come and call you."

Li Xue paused while holding the tea cup and looked at the girl who had just come in. Why did she think her brother had fallen into the pansi hole.

A white silk shirt, a black straight skirt, and black leather sandals, but something doesn't look right.

It's not that it looks similar to the work clothes I wear to work, but the way the other person wears them and the way he looks at his second brother always makes him look coveted.

Li Xuewu didn't care about this. He waved his hand and said, "I have something to talk about. I'll be there in a moment."

As he spoke, he glanced at Ou Xin and asked with a smile: "Are you doing well here?"

Ou Xin wants to do it anywhere, as long as you like it, but she is afraid of the tigress in the house getting angry.

She didn't know clearly when she came here to play before, but after working long hours, she couldn't tell who Sister Lou was.

Such a large industry is left to Lou Xiao'e to manage it alone, and Lou Xiao'e bears all the operating expenses of the club. The club still belongs to Brother Li.

what is this?

I guess Brother Li is very capable~

The most important thing about a man is not necessarily his ability. There are many capable men.

She didn't want to offend Sister Lou here. The wages and benefits here were average, but it was the entertainment life they wanted.

Compared to the spiritual shackles outside, this place is like an ideological utopia.

If coupled with a little sense of mystery and superiority, this job is extremely suitable for them.

"It's pretty good~"

Ou Xin's eyes look like a fox when he smiles, he is charming and clingy, and his words are like a fox: "The environment is comfortable and the work is easy. The most important thing is that Sister Lou treats us well and makes everything comfortable for us."

Li Xuewu smiled and glanced at Sister Lou sitting next to him, who also smiled.

Sister Lou didn't know the intentions of these little foxes. From the day Huang Gan and others brought them here to play, she could see what kind of personalities these girls were.

It can be said that clinging to power is not enough, but it can be said that there is still a little bit of greed for money and lust. In short, he is a very lethargic character.

She also knew that Li Xuewu had nothing to do with the other party, otherwise it would not have been possible to let him in, and she even let them train as managers.

But it was this charm that gave her a deep sense of crisis. Now she could still manage it at home, but if she went to Hong Kong City in the future, what would become of this place?

Glancing at Ou Xin who was greeting him to leave, Sister Lou once again issued a veiled warning to Li Xuewu.

Li Xuewu just smiled and didn't take it seriously.

He is not stupid, he knows better than anyone what kind of girlfriend he can and cannot have.

Besides, does he lack a girlfriend?

The two talked about what happened upstairs for a while, and Li Xuewu said that he would take time to go up the mountain to have a look. The relevant work plan was also being advanced rapidly.

The contact station on the mountain can receive signals from the port city, and dedicated personnel have been arranged to monitor it.

Sister Lou is worried about his father, while Li Xuewu is more worried about whether the first step in the future will go smoothly.

After finishing a cup of tea, Li Xuewu did not let Sister Lou continue. He stood up, greeted his sister and left the office.

After exiting the screen door at the management office, Li Xue couldn't help but ask, "Why is she here?"

“This is a good question”

Li Xuewu had known for a long time that the girl would ask this question, and he had prepared an answer in his heart.

"Didn't I buy the house from her family? There was some contact, and later we had some cooperation, so we have what we have now."

"that's it?"

Li Xue obviously felt that her second brother was deceiving her. Is this really all the contact and cooperation he mentioned?

Li Xuewu looked at the girl funny and asked: "What else can it be?"

After speaking, he patted her shoulder and said as he walked: "Their family is rich, I have ideas, support each other, and win-win cooperation. You will understand this when you grow up."

Li Xue shook off her second brother's big hand impatiently, saying that she felt like she was still a child.

Even though she was already at work, she still said that when she grows up, she will understand many things now.

Especially the second brother's matter is very complicated!

"It's dangerous for you to do this~"

Li Xue walked forward, looked back at her second brother and said, "It's also very wrong."

"Yeah, it's very dangerous."

Li Xuewu shook his head helplessly and said: "Your second brother and I have to face this dangerous situation every day. If I don't pay attention, I will be bitten, so I am very vigilant."

Li Xue curled her lips and said angrily: "How vigilant is enough? You have to be conscious!"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and asked: "Am I not conscious enough now? I take you to protect me when I go out to socialize~"

"There is no cure~"

Li Xue shook her head and snorted as she walked forward and said, "You just like them to hang around you. You have been like this since you were a child. You deliberately provoke those women."

"Haha~"

Li Xuewu chuckled lightly, feeling that his sister had grown up and knew more, and was not as easy to fool as she was when she was a child.

After greeting Li Xue, who had walked away angrily, he came back and entered the billiards room. He glanced downstairs and saw that Huang Gan and the others were not there, so he went up to the second floor.

At the stairway on the second floor, he met Ou Xin, whom he had just met. Li Xuewu followed the location she pointed to and found Huang Qian and others.

He nodded with a smile, teased Ou Xin, and walked inside with the pouting Li Xue.

Huang Qian had met Li Xue, but he wasn't very impressed. When he got closer, he teased him.

Li Xuewu took the opportunity to formally introduce his sister to several people, which was regarded as Li Xue's formal contact with society after going to work.

Huang Qian and others also greeted Li Xue with a serious smile, which made Li Xue less aware that his second brother was surrounded by cunning friends.

Especially when the second brother introduced their respective identities, coupled with their serious smiling expressions, you can understand the meaning of this club's existence even more.

When Li Xuewu introduced a few people, he also noticed a few girls standing on the other side of the sofa, smiled and nodded.

When Huang Gan saw Li Xuewu looking over, he took the initiative to introduce him with a smile: "The ones I met last time, Xiaobai, Xiaoyun..."

Well, I'm quite a novice...

After a series of introductions, Li Xuewu smiled and nodded, very kindly, as if he remembered them, and didn't seem to care. His performance was completely in line with Li Xue's psychological requirements.

These girls can naturally feel the atmosphere of the scene. The introduction to them is completely different from the introduction to Li Xue, and the tone is not the same.

However, most of them agree with this difference. After all, there are two circles of communication, and there will always be closeness and distance.

After everyone sat down and talked, they did not feel how difficult it was to get in touch with the mysterious Director Li.

They were just as good at joking and amusing as Brother Huang and the others, but he focused less on them and mostly laughed with Ma Jun and the others.

Ao Zhongliang patted Luo Yun's butt and motioned for her to take Li Xue to play billiards, while he sat on the single sofa.

Li Xue was invited by Luo Yun with a smile. She glanced at the second brother who was talking, then stood up and went to the case.

She doesn't know how to play this, and has never been exposed to it, but it doesn't seem to be difficult to watch people in other positions play.

Luo Yun didn't deliberately try to please Li Xue. They were both about the same age and had their own tsundere. Like Xiao Bai, she was a leader in the circle.

When I came here to play today, I felt that the atmosphere here was good, and it was more advanced than running around and causing trouble with the silly kids in the courtyard.

They had also been to other places, including the sports ground and shooting range, but they just thought the billiards room was more fun.

The sofa side corresponds to the case, and the rest area is also separated by Duobao Pavilion-style bookshelves, which makes it feel private even if you don't speak loudly.

Of course, as long as you want to watch, you can't do any secretive actions here. At best, you can get together and talk quietly.

Li Xue was learning billiards while scanning her second brother's direction. There was already a girl sitting next to him, but the second brother didn't move or talk to her.

"How old are you?"

"sixteen"

Li Xue glanced at the girl named Luo Yun, and followed her instruction, hitting a ball, but it was not accurate.

Luo Yun smiled and said, "I'm one year older than you."

While talking, she also hit a shot, but her skills were just like that. She had only been playing for a while. She had been dragging Zhou Xiaobai here these days, but she could only learn a little bit.

Li Xue nodded without saying a word. She glanced at her second brother and started playing with the pole again.

Luo Yun noticed Li Xue's gaze, moved closer and asked with a smile: "Are you here to supervise your brother?"

"no"

Li Xue glanced at Luo Yun while holding the cue, but the cue he immediately threw out did not touch the ball at all.

Luo Yun smiled and said, "The person sitting next to him is my classmate named Zhou Xiaobai. We grew up together."

Li Xue glanced at the other person. He was indeed very fair and fresh, but he didn't like to talk. Maybe he was nervous. He sat beside his second brother blankly.

"It's okay, your brother just doesn't like us~"

Luo Yun also has an older brother, so he naturally understands the relationship between his sister and his older brother, especially those with a larger age gap, who seem to be competing for each other.

"We've been here for several days, but we haven't seen your brother a few times, and we haven't had many opportunities to talk seriously. We don't have the thoughts you have in mind."

This was said in a plain tone. It not only gave a proud explanation of the identity of himself and others, but also dispelled Li Xue's hostility towards them.

Li Xue, however, looked at Luo Yun, who looked a bit social, with some curiosity, and asked: "Then why are you here? Why..."

"Why are you playing with your brother and the others?"

Luo Yun glanced at Li Xue funnyly and realized that she was a greenhouse flower protected by Director Li and had no contact with society.

"Haha, the girl who comes here to play is a bad person?"

She first asked with a slight smile. Li Xue was here, so the answer to the question was of course obvious.

"We came here with Brother Huang. He has a nice place to play, and we love to play. As long as it doesn't go too far, shouldn't we all get along as friends?"

After saying that, she glanced at Ou Xin at the door. Those big girls were their future templates. To be honest, she also wanted to work here. It would be great to make money and have fun at the same time.

When Li Xue was playing ball, she shrugged her shoulders and asked softly: "Are you a friend?"

"What?"

Li Xue glanced at Luo Yun with a slight frown, but Luo Yun smiled gossipily and explained: "They are boyfriend and girlfriend. You are already at work. You are adults, so of course you can socialize normally."

"No"

Li Xue still can't accept this too unrestrained way of communication, but she has seen the world and does not reject such people. Of course, she will not try it herself.

Luo Yun said with a smile: "You should be more open-minded. What age are you in? Men and women still have sex but they don't have sex. We are all friends and we are not like that. What are we afraid of?"

Li Xue disagrees with Luo Yun's statement, but she will not refute it. This is a rule she learned after working, which makes it easier to integrate into society.

After placing the ball, he set up the club and asked, "Are you friends with my second brother?"

Obviously, the "friend" she wanted to ask about was deeper than what was explained in Luo Yun's words, and it was more straightforward to tear away the cover in Luo Yun's words and point to her heart.

You really think I'm young and ignorant, don't you? I don't believe you don't want to have that special kind of boyfriend and girlfriend with my second brother.

I saw a lot of people like you when I was a kid!

Luo Yun's face was a little stiff, but he looked at Li Xue as if he didn't care, thinking that she was asking about the "friend" on the surface of his words.

"No way~ We don't have that ability~"

As he spoke, he gestured to Ou Xin, who was walking over from the door, and said, "They can't, let alone us."

Li Xue's eyes turned slightly as she stared at the ball while holding the club. She glanced at Ou Xin who was holding the fruit plate, then curled her lips and muttered in her heart: The crow is standing on the pig...

"Brother Li, your treat~"

Ou Xin smiled and put down the fruit plate and said something to Li Xuewu, interrupting the two people who were talking.

Ma Jun glanced at Li Xuewu with a smile, holding the tea cup and saying nothing, but Li Xuewu waved his hand and said: "Director Huang made a fortune today, and it will be recorded in his account."

As he spoke, he nodded at Huang Qian, who was sitting opposite him, causing the girl next to Huang Qian to look at him.

The word "get rich" is really a special word at this time. Even during the Chinese New Year, I don't even say it.

In the past, during the Chinese New Year, we used to say happy new year and good luck in making a fortune, but now we no longer have to say happy new year and make progress together.

But it is precisely because they are here, saying such words, that they feel eager to break through the shackles.

The more things are forbidden to be done, the more willing young people are to do them, and the more forbidden things are to be said, the more youthful and wanton it is to speak out.

Ou Xin was already used to this. He put his hand on Huang Qian's shoulder and said with a chuckle: "Then I have to congratulate Brother Huang first. Pei Peike has been thinking about it for a long time when he will take us to a movie."

Huang Gan grinned, looked at Li Xuewu opposite, turned to Ou Xin and asked: "Do you have time at work? There are movies in this courtyard, you can watch whatever you want~"

Ou Xin complained dissatisfiedly: "You are the one who doesn't have time, right? There are only a few movies in this theater, and I can memorize the lines after watching them over and over again."

After saying that, his eyes glanced at the girls sitting on the sofa. They were younger and more tender than them, so there was a sense of crisis.

Zhou Xiaobai sat next to Li Xuewu, listening to his words and feeling his aura. When the waiter opposite looked at her, she unconsciously straightened her back and stretched her small youthful body even wider.

Huang Gan stood up and put his arm around Ou Xin's shoulders as he walked out, whispering, obviously coaxing something.

Li Xue didn't care either, her eyes were still on her second brother.

Li Xuewu didn't pay attention to his sister's gaze, but talked to Ma Jun about the Xicheng Procuratorate again.

He wanted to introduce the Xicheng Procuratorate's training and education for police officers at the Red Star Training Ground.

Of course, it was not to pay for the training. He wanted to formally invite the powerful departments in Xicheng to join the Red Star joint unit.

There is a sign for Xicheng Procuratorate hanging on the wall at the entrance of the training ground. Of course, I can't tell Ma Jun why now.

Of course, they also invited Ao Zhongliang when they invited Ma Jun. They have always done the police training themselves, which is more or less the same. The combat effectiveness of the current powerful departments is not low, and they are all based on the old foundation left over from the past.

But if you want to say it's high, it's not that high. At least it's not that professional. They don't have a special training ground for training.

“If you have time, you can go to the mountains to see it.”

Li Xuewu blinked and said with a smile: "Eat some farm food by the way and experience rural life."

Ao Zhongliang asked with a smile: "Can I hunt? I haven't played with a shotgun for a long time."

"What do you want to fight?"

Li Xuewu grinned and said: "Last time I saw a tabby cat, it robbed a yellow sheep from us. Not only was it not afraid of us chasing it, it even looked at us on the mountain."

Ao Zhongliang waved his hands repeatedly and said: "I can't fight that thing. Pheasants and rabbits are okay. If they are too big, they won't look good on you. In actual operation, you will lose your life. It's not worth it."

Li Xuewu saw that he cherished his life, and then he relaxed and said: "It is August now, which is the time to get fat. If you want to go, please make an appointment sometime, and I will have someone show you the way."

"You're not going?"

Ma Jun was stunned for a moment while holding the tea cup, and Ao Zhongliang also looked at Li Xuewu doubtfully.

Huang Gan, who came back, continued: "He can't leave. The personnel of the security brigade have been frozen. He has to take charge of the work at any time."

As he spoke, he took a piece of watermelon from the table and bit it. He took the paper handed to him by the girl next to him, wiped his mouth and continued: "There are many people on the mountain. You have arrangements for whatever you want to do. It doesn't matter whether he goes or not. ".

After eating a piece of watermelon, he saw that Ma Jun and Ma Jun were understanding and exchanging glances. He didn't pay much attention. He motioned to Li Xuewu opposite and asked, "Is Biaozi still going up the mountain?"

"Absolutely, three or four times a week."

Li Xuewu didn't pick up the cigarette, but also took a piece of watermelon and bit it, talking about Lao Biaozi's recent trip.

Huang Qian had more contact with Lao Biaozi. Although Shen Guodong was now responsible for going to the No. 1 Prison to pull goods, Lao Biaozi was doing all the work on the surface and accounting.

Zhou Xiaobai glanced at Li Xuewu, then thought of Yueyue who had just handed Huang Qian a piece of paper across from him, and hesitated whether he should also prepare a piece of paper for Li Xuewu.

Li Xuewu didn't wait for her to take action. He had already wiped his hands with paper, and at the same time called Li Xue and Luo Yun, who were playing ball, to come over and eat fruit.

Although these girls were greedy for the small plate of fruit, they all knew how to handle it and did not take action.

At this moment, Li Xuewu greeted them and handed a plate to them, and the girls all took it with a smile.

"If you have time, you can go with them and take a look at the training ground."

Li Xuewu gestured at Huang Gan, sat back on the sofa, and threw away the paper he wiped his hands with.

Huang Gan curled his lips and said: "I won't go, I don't have a gun, and I don't want to hunt. I agree to stay at home."

After speaking, he looked at the girl next to him and said with a smile: "How can a tabby cat or a yellow sheep be as beautiful as Yueyue?"

The girl named Yueyue knew that Brother Huang was teasing her on purpose, and would talk nonsense without even touching her.

But these jokes are still itchy in their ears. The things these brothers talk about are all coded to them, and things like mountains and hunting are nonsense to them.

If it was really about hunting, there would be no need to talk about it here, let alone talk about it specifically.

But it is this kind of secretive topic that is interesting to listen to. Although they don't understand it, their participation means that they are different from the silly girls in those circles.

Li Xue stood by the coffee table and glanced at Huang Gan. The person who gave him a gift in the first prison last time was the second brother's friend, but it didn't look so out of place this time.

Could it be that after entering here, all men will become indifferent?

"That's it, Zhong Liang and I will go up the mountain next weekend."

Ma Jun glanced at Li Xuewu and asked, "Do you mind if I bring a few friends and colleagues?"

"certainly"

Li Xuewu nodded indifferently and said: "It's not as rich as you think. You'll know when you go there. It's safe when there are more people, but you don't have to be careful enough."

Ma Jun glanced at Ao Zhongliang again, nodded silently, and did not talk about the topic again, but in his heart he was calculating who should be taken and who would not need to go.

"Brother Li and the others are here?"

Pei Pei came up from the stairs and asked Ou Xin while he was groping inside.

Ou Xin pointed to the inside and said, "We are talking about something inside."

Pei Pei nodded and greeted the players who were playing ball: "Brothers, the restaurant is open for dinner. Don't wait if you are late."

Several people who were playing ball greeted Pei Pei and Ou Xin and went downstairs.

Li Xuewu also stood up when he heard the noise and walked out together.

Yueyue seemed to do it on purpose. When she saw Pei Pei coming over, she walked close to Huang Qian and walked together.

Li Xue looked amused and glanced at her second brother.

There are no girls around the second brother at the moment. As long as she is around, the second brother will not be allowed to make mistakes.

"Are you still here this afternoon?"

Huang Qian didn't pay attention to Pei Pei and turned around to talk to Li Xuewu, nor did he pay attention to Yueyue beside him.

Li Xuewu pointed in front of him and asked him to be careful not to bump into Pei Pei, who was about to touch porcelain, but he said: "No, I will rest in the afternoon and go visit relatives in the evening."

Pei Pei glared at Huang Gan, who was pretending not to see him, ignored the little Yueyue, and turned around to go outside.

Huang Qian and Li Xuewu showed their hands, as if saying that women are trouble.

"I wanted to invite a few people to join in the fun tonight, but Sister Wang and the others didn't come either."

"Let's play with Ma Jun and the others. Sister Wang is training them in the mountains."

Li Xuewu followed everyone downstairs and invited the girls to eat together. It was already dinner time, so there was no reason for everyone to have their own meal.

A large group of people went to the restaurant and didn't ask for a private room, so they just shared a table in the hall.

It seems that at this time, the restaurant is the same as the steel rolling mill guest house. Meals are prepared in advance, and anyone who wants to eat can buy whatever they want.

Because of the closed operation, there is no need to vote here, and members can all register their accounts.

Huang Qian invited tea and fruits, but there was no reason not to invite him to lunch. Li Xuewu and a group of people treated him as a rich man.

This is nothing. In the past, when Li Xuewu entertained guests, the atmosphere was just like this.

Zhou Xiaobai habitually sat next to Li Xuewu, with Li Xue on the other side. The two looked at each other and each glanced away.

There are not many people eating here at noon. Even if the food in the restaurant is cheap, they are used to going home to eat.

It's very simple. If you come to exercise in the morning, you won't come in the afternoon. At most, you can take your family to watch movies and chat by the way in the evening.

The situation has entered a period of stable development. Everyone has an understanding of their own environment and is less confused.

They are all veteran cadres, so they will certainly not be confused when dealing with these issues.

Including Li Xuewu, there was no one who didn't have understanding in their hearts but shouted confusion in their mouths.

Listening to the organization and following the advice is not something you just say casually. Do you think the organization is on the wrong track? The organization still thinks you are unreliable.

Li Xuewu has learned to look at problems with the thinking of this era, and he has also learned to lower his perspective and not be too smart.

In history, people who were too smart never ended up well. For example, Einstein lost his brain.

——

"Second brother, don't take me out to play next time."

Li Xue straightened her hair around her ears and said to Li Xuewu, who was driving back, "I have friends myself."

"Those friends from before?"

Li Xuewu glanced at his sister and said with a smile: "You are already at work, can you still talk to them?"

After speaking, he smiled nonchalantly and said, "Huang Qian is just teasing you. You don't really believe that I will take those girls out to play, do you?"

Li Xue shook her head slightly when facing her second brother's question, but what she was thinking about was what Huang Gan said to her when she came out after lunch.

"You can't stick to your brother all the time. It's going to delay your brother from making friends."

Of course she didn't believe this. If her second brother wanted to make friends, how could she delay him?

Just by looking at how hard these girls leaned on him today, you can tell how dangerous it is that the second brother said it's dangerous outside.

Although she also knows that these girls are proactive, and although she also knows that her second brother is upright and reliable, such complicated interpersonal relationships are really not good.

Wandering on the edge of taboos, you can naturally feel the fun of breaking free from the shackles at any time, but this is also a dangerous game.

If you often walk by the river, your shoes will never get wet.

If the second brother often comes into contact with such people or is in such an environment for a long time, he will inevitably make mistakes.

Thinking about the second brother's position, thinking about his own family, and thinking about such a good sister-in-law, the second brother should continue to maintain an upright and reliable image.

Li Xuewu understood his sister's worries. In Li Xue's mind, he was a good person, a pure person, a noble person who was free from vulgar taste.

Indeed, he was indeed such a person, so he didn't stay at the club any longer. Why don't he send Li Xue home and find a place to sleep by himself.

Li Xue really didn't want to spend a day in the club because she still had a lot of information to read. When she got home, she told Li Xuewu and went to her third sister-in-law's room in the east courtyard to read.

It was precisely because of her work attitude that she had the same attitude as when she was in school that her mother reminded her and pulled her out to play together.

Li Xuewu looked helplessly at his sister who had failed to reform. Isn't this little girl a workaholic?

There is no shortage of genes for concentration in their family. His father focuses on traditional Chinese medicine, his eldest brother focuses on physics, and he, Li Xuewu, is particularly focused on beautiful girls.

At noon, everyone in the family was sleeping, and everyone in the courtyard was quiet, so he didn't go into the courtyard. He just went out and drove back.

In the hot summer, opera and ice cream are both creamy and sweet, relieving the heat and reducing the heat...

——

"Why so many?"

“It’s cheap, just eat it~”

Old Biaozi signaled the boys to continue moving down, while he took the towel from his neck to wipe his sweat, and explained to Li Xuewu, who had just entered the hospital: "This car is cheaper than the last one. I thought about it. It doesn’t cost much, so let’s try it out.”

As he spoke, he grabbed a handful of grapes from the car and pointed them at Li Xuewu. Seeing that he wouldn't eat them, he stuffed them into his mouth.

Li Xuewu didn't eat because he had just finished eating small grapes, and he disliked the grapes in the car that were not washed, so he wouldn't put them in his mouth.

I took a simple bath at Tong Huimei's place and slept for more than an hour. I was very energetic now.

"Is it all done?"

"It's done. Let's make things simpler."

Lao Biaozi briefly reported to Li Xuewu the distribution of goods on the trade train.

He contracted less than 70% of it, and the rest was taken away by the steel rolling mill and related factories.

Not all of his 70% is given to the supply and marketing cooperatives, but customers such as the Procuratorate and the Department of Justice will bear the bill.

Including some fruits that were damaged during transportation, a large part of them have to be sent to the mountains for canning, and they have been busy there for a long time.

The remaining 50% will be distributed to the supply and marketing cooperative to complete the city-wide distribution of goods, including seafood and fruits. Basically, everything can be sold out in just one afternoon.

Rice wine does not, and rice wine is not sold this way. Most of them will be stored and sold slowly, because even though the price of this thing is not high, there is no market for it.

Of course, the market price is cheap, and white wine can be seen on the shelves of sales agencies, but rice wine is rare.

Lao Biaozi and Director Ma planned to use these rice wines with the bulk products of the No. 1 Prison, including small items such as chess and poker. Some supply and marketing cooperatives were unwilling to sell or purchase them on behalf of others, so they had to make do with rare items like rice wine.

Of course, it can’t be the same as rice wine. Autumn is coming soon, and there are still dry goods coming from the Northeast, so it will be fine then.

"Help me pack a few bags and go out to visit later."

Li Xuewu looked at the things in the basket. There was naturally very little seafood. This stuff was so valuable that the old man didn't want to take it back. He just wanted to taste it.

Lao Biaozi asked specifically: "Do you want to pack seafood?"

"Haha, what a funny thing?"

Li Xuewu glanced at Lao Biaozi and said, "I don't want seafood. It's watery and hard to handle. Just fruits. I'll take a few bottles of rice wine and go to my godmother's house."

Lao Biaozi chuckled and said sheepishly: "You really don't get much for this thing, it's very expensive."

Li Xuewu clicked on the basket and signaled him to prepare quickly, but he didn't say anything to him again.

I made an appointment with Gu Ning to take advantage of the cool afternoon to go to my godmother's house and my master's wife's house.

He wouldn't go to his master's wife's house without Gu Ning accompanying him. His godmother had made arrangements several times to ask him to take Gu Ning to sit there.

Liu Yin also meant the same. She had to visit relatives while Gu Ning's health allowed.

Including the Gu family's relationship here, Li Xuewu was ready to turn around.

Because of Gu Ning's character and lack of understanding of Li Xuewu, people with these connections were embarrassed to come to her.

They were all elders, so Li Xuewu and Gu Ning should have taken the initiative to visit them, in order to maintain the Gu family's relationship network here.

Except for Sun Wukong, no one jumped out of the cracks in the rocks. Everyone has relatives and friends, and they have to move around if they want to interact with each other.

When Li Xuewu and Gu Ning came in carrying a bag of fruits and rice wine, they were warmly received by Zheng Shusen and Wang Shuhua.

They are still a little unfamiliar with Gu Ning and they don't meet many times, but their relationship with Li Xuewu is casual and they treat Gu Ning really warmly.

Gu Ning and Li Xuewu have been together for a long time, and their worldly manners are no longer about doing whatever they want. They don't talk unless they want to, and they also know how to ask people to say hello.

Godmother Wang Shuhua smiled and took Gu Ning's hand, asking how her family was and how she was doing.

When Li Xuewu came last time, he had already mentioned that Gu Ning was pregnant, and Zheng Shusen and Wang Shuhua were also happy.

The relationship with Li Xuewu and the Li family is getting closer and closer, and his concern for the next generation is naturally sincere.

It was cooler in the courtyard this afternoon, and few people had entered the house. Zheng Shusen smiled and looked at his lover, who was complaining that his godson had brought something again, and asked her to go to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

"Just right, let's have a drink tonight."

While talking, he ordered the rice wine brought by Li Xuewu and said, "Just drink your wine, hahahaha."

Li Xuewu also knew that his godmother was strict and wouldn't let him drink more, so he smiled and nodded in agreement.

First I went to my wife’s house, then to Sister Xie’s house, and finally I came to my godmother’s house just to have dinner here.

Gu Ning wanted to get up and go to help, but Zheng Shusen waved his hand to stop him and said with a smile: "I knew you were coming, your godmother has already prepared it, it's all ready-made, just put it into the pot."

Li Xuewu smiled, introduced Gu Ning to his godfather's family, and also talked about his origins in childhood.

These were all things Li Xuewu had told her in advance, and now that they were brought up again, they were just talking about topics that the three of them could talk about.

Zheng Shusen smiled and nodded to Li Xuewu, mentioning his naughty past when he was a child.

The topic was not finished until the dinner table. It was because he had too many surprises when he was a child.

After dinner, the godmother pulled Gu Ning to talk, while Zheng Shusen, who had drunk a little too much, pulled Li Xuewu to talk about his depression.

"I'm really troubled, so troubled."

Zheng Shusen frowned and waved his hands, and whispered to Li Xuewu: "The more I avoid them, the more they come to me, the less I want to get involved in these things, the more they want me to get involved, it doesn't make sense Well~"

Li Xuewu listened to his godfather's "Versailles" with a smile, knowing that he was distressed about being transferred to the city to hold an important position.
